Today I’m sharing the make-n-take project that I presented during my last demonstrator team Connect, Create & Share event on February 1st. I sent everyone participating a similar pack of supplies. (I say “similar” because budget-wise I had to send out different combos of the Nature Walk designer paper.) And then at the Zoom event I demonstrated and/or explained how to turn those supplies into a variety of different card layouts.
In the days that followed people shared their finished creations in our team Facebook group album. Many chose to follow the pattern of my first design that I showed (the first one I’m sharing today) since that was the one that I demonstrated in more detail from start to finish. Some followed another pattern I presented. Some used different but similar product. Some added extra touches like inking or embossing. It was so fun to see all the variations!
It truly is incredible how the same supplies can create so many different looks! So I’m going to walk you through those same variations today.
I also just received my February Product of the Month (POM)* yesterday! So during my instructional video you’ll see that pretty Painted Illusions Paper in a couple card samples, too.
Be sure to watch my instructional video by clicking here* for measurements, tips and directions (or you can just click on this image below if you are already here in my blog post and can view it), scroll through the photos that follow, check out the products list below, and then let me know if you have any questions.
I hope you enjoyed all the card variations I shared in this video. And wasn’t it fun to see the the new product and the new Stampin’ Positioner in action too?! As I mentioned in the video, the newer products debut March 3. And the Stampin’ Positioner (a $49 value!) is a FREE gift for those purchasing the Starter Kit this month through March 2.
Below are photos of all the cards I shared and a visual list of products (each linked to where you can find them in my online store). I invite you to subscribe to my YouTube channel so you can get updates when I share and go live.
Click here to access and download the printable “measurements & supplies” sheet.
Beginning measurements for each Nature Walk card…

Here are card variations I shared that can be made with these same supplies mentioned in the above measurements. Of course, there are many MANY other variations I’m sure. (If you come up with one, I’d love to see your design! Please post it in my Stamp Your Art Out Group on Facebook and tag me so I see it.)
Do you have a favorite? Feel free to leave me a comment below. OH! And here is the version of this last card using the new Painted Illusions February POM Designer Paper.
These are the cards that I created with the help of the new Stampin’ Positioner. This first one I demonstrated in my Live on 1/28/26. I used the new A Rainbow of Thanks Stamp Set which becomes available March 3.
This is one I shared how to make at the end of today’s Live. It features the beautiful new Painted Illusions February POM Designer Paper available now for $5 with a $75 order AND the new Cutest Crew Bundle which becomes available March 3.
I’ve included an extra product list below for these additional “currently available” products I used to make these two cards. I hope you had fun today and gained some creative inspiration.

I went live on YouTube Friday night. It was an exclusive members-only Live for my aRT Supporter members. I walked them through how to put together this Tower Pillar Card with the fun Wildflower Birthday papers and ephemera. (Shown below is the front view and the back view of the same card.)
A big thank you to Dawn Klomen who shared this video from Sam Calcott and asked me to modify the measurements to make this fun fold fit Stampin’ Up!’s A2 size envelopes.
I love math! So it was fun to come up with this and share it with my members.
And you can see in this photo below how it collapses to a 4-1/4″ x 5-1/2″ card. Yay!

My son’s friend Eli made some cards in my studio last night. I coached him, but he picked out the images/papers, colors, sentiments, and embellishments and made decisions on the layout and overall design.
One is for his dad and one is for his mom. He learned how to stamp, die-cut, punch, use various adhesives, cut with the Trimmer, add embellishments with the Take Your Pick Tool, and fix mistakes.
And didn’t he do a great job!?
The pretty spring-looking designer paper is no longer available. But everything else is current or soon-to-be current.

It’s a fun size for gifting a Ghirardelli chocolate square, cash, or a small note.
(The Lights of Aurora Suite is what we are featuring this month in the All Star Video Class Bundle. See info above.)

What a week! I’m starting to catch up again though. In today’s post you will see links to my two last Lives, photos of the cards I created and shared in my “Masking & Silhouette Stamping” Live, AND one more project that I created with the Farmhouse Florals August 2025 Paper Pumpkin kit – a 12×12 scrapbook page layout.
For those of you who follow me on Facebook, in my newsletters, and/or on my YouTube Lives, you know that our youngest Luke just had hernia repair surgery on Thursday. He is doing great and taking it easy as he heals from this before his big move to Los Angeles next month.
I also had a minor medical procedure Wednesday afternoon. So both of us are on the mend. And my mother-in-law is on hospice care. So my husband was out of town Friday through Sunday. Hence the reasons I’ve been behind in my blog postings. Thank you for your patience.
Here is the link to my Live Online Paper Crafting Class from last Wednesday, September 3rd. In that Live I mentioned that fantastic cards can be made with just “stamps, inks and paper.” And I demonstrated silhouette stamping and masking along with ink blending and splattering techniques. (Click here or on the image below to watch that Online Paper Crafting Class from 9/3/25.)
These are photos of the cards I shared during that Live. And at the bottom of my post you will find links to the products I used to make these cards.
Branching Out Stamp Set…Tuxedo Black, Azure Afternoon, Blueberry Bushel, Gorgeous Grape, White Craft, and Wink of Stella inks
Prairie Grass Stamp Set…Tuxedo Black, Timid Tiger, Cajun Craze, Crushed Curry, and Wink of Stella inks
Happy Place Stamp Set…Tuxedo Black, Crushed Curry, Pretty In Pink, Coastal Cabana, and Wink of Stella inks
Here is the link to my Live Broadcast from last Friday, September 5th. In that Live I mentioned shared LOTS of gifted cards that I’ve received since my last show & share on 8/6/25. (Click here or on the image below to watch that Live from 9/5/25.)
If you were someone who sent me one of these lovely creations, thank you! It’s so fun to see all the creativity. And I get a lot of inspiration from all of you. If you’d like to send me cards to share in my livestreams, the address is: 14275 Raven Street NW, Andover, MN 55304
And now I present my full two-page 12×12 scrapbook page layout that I created with the Farmhouse Florals August 2025 Paper Pumpkin kit. If you did not get this kit, I hope you can apply these ideas to products you already own. OR…become an active subscriber and get in on the refill kit while it’s available. The refill kit doesn’t contain the ink and stamp images. But you will at least gain the main pieces and can hopefully replace most of the stamp images I used with some of your own. And then…I encourage you to stay subscribed through September 10th so you can be in on the next kit (hints on the next kit can be found below).
The page bases are the light side (left) and dark (right) sides of the 12×12 Lost Lagoon Two-Toned Cardstock layered with 6×12 dark sides of Secret Sea Two-Toned Cardstock.
For the left page I layered sections of kit card bases together…upper right is 5-1/2″ x 5-1/2″, upper left is what was cut off 3″ x 5-1/2″, lower left is full card base, and lower right is 5-1/2″ x 5-1/2″.
After adding these to the base page with a 1/2″ border on the top and sides and overlapping the bottom right to cover up the bottom of the upper right, I used two envelope flaps, another kit card base (2-1/8″ x 5-1/2″) and some Mossy Meadow/Gold Ribbon for the title section.
I connected one envelope flap and the ribbon to the back side of the kit card layer. And then I attached this all with Dimensionals to conceal the bag and just show the flowers.
I cut out my letters from the second envelope flap and glued them (applying the glue with the Silicone Brush and/or the Precision Tip bottle) to the title area.
I stamped some extra flowers with Crushed Curry ink and dotted the centers with a dark brown Blends Marker. Then I embellished with extra kit flowers and some Adhesive-Backed Dragonflies and Birds.
For the right page I layered two envelopes and a couple sections of kit card bases together…a full 8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″ card with a 3″ x 5-1/2″ piece from other cut base on the left page.
After overlapping and adding these to the base page with a 1/2″ border on the top and sides to form a 10-1/4″ x 11″ rectangle, I cut a half bag/flowers image and two circles from another kit card. Then I placed the half bag/flowers and my photo mats in this way.
I attached the die-cut circles with Dimensionals to conceal the bag and just show the flowers. I stamped some extra flowers with Crushed Curry ink and dotted the centers with a dark brown Blends Marker. Then I embellished with extra kit flowers and some Adhesive-Backed Dragonflies and Birds.
This would be a perfect layout to feature friendship or other close relationship (engagement, prom, wedding, anniversary) photos.
I hope you gained some creative inspiration today. Thanks for visiting! By the way, I shared my first set of alternate project ideas on August 20th. Be sure to visit that page to see my how-to video, photos, and more for all my alternate card ideas.

I am an affiliate with Stamp-n-Storage which means I may get commissions if you click on links I provide and decide to purchase anything from this company. But this does not cost you anything extra to shop this way. I love their products and recommend them because I own several myself and believe you will benefit from them.
